Environments, not backdrops
iPad mockup videos
for tablet apps
Drop in a recording of your tablet app and it plays on an iPad in animated 3D environments I art-directed: on the arm of a chair, in long grass or upright on a concrete plinth. The camera and light are already set; pick scenes and export an MP4.

18 iPad scenes
The iPad sits differently in each of the five rooms: flat on wood, in the grass, upright on its keyboard. It is in landscape in every scene, and each scene is one camera move, from a slow push to a look straight down. Open one to try it.
Who makes it
I build every room myself, down to the camera
I'm Krystof, a designer in Prague. I model the furniture, set the lights and move the camera for each scene, then render every frame in Blender. The iPad's screen is mapped exactly, so your recording follows the glass as the camera turns.
About Motion Mockups
From a screen recording to an MP4
- 01Record your iPadUse the iPad's own screen recording, held landscape, or a recording from the simulator. A prototype video exported from Figma works too, and so does a still image.
- 02Pick scenesLine up iPad scenes from different rooms on one timeline; the recording carries on across each cut. Fit recording sets which part of it shows on the screen.
- 03ExportDownload an H.264 MP4 at 30 fps, square, wide, tall or in between, at 1080 or 2160 pixels on the short edge. Or a single still as PNG or JPEG.
The details
For a tablet app, export wide 16:9 for your website or YouTube, square for a post, or 4:3, close to the iPad's own shape. Every scene on the timeline goes into one MP4, or each into a file of its own. The export runs in your browser and draws each frame from the full-size renders, not from the 720p preview.

Questions
Is there a free iPad mockup?
You can make one without paying or signing up: drop in a recording, try every iPad scene and watch the result with a watermark. Exporting the MP4 or a still is part of Pro, at $35 a month or $240 a year.
Can I show an app that runs in portrait?
The iPad lies landscape in every scene. A portrait recording still goes on the screen, fitted to it; open Fit recording to choose which part shows and how it is scaled. A landscape recording usually needs no adjusting.
Can I use it for my App Store preview?
Not as the App Preview video on your App Store page. Apple's guideline 2.3.4 allows only screen captures of the app itself, so a device frame doesn't belong there. Use the iPad scenes for your launch page, a Product Hunt gallery, social posts and ads instead.
Do I need After Effects or Blender?
Neither. I rendered the rooms in Blender already, and the editor places your recording on the iPad in Chrome, Edge or Safari on a computer. There is no template to open and no plugin to install.
Can I use the video for client work?
Yes. With Pro you may use the exports commercially: for clients, in ads, on your website and on social media, with no credit needed. Videos you exported while subscribed remain yours to use after you cancel.
Which iPad is it?
A current iPad with flat edges and slim, even borders, modelled in Blender; I don't name a model. A landscape recording at 3500 × 2444 fills the screen exactly. Other sizes are fitted, and Fit recording lets you choose which part shows.
